Comments on: A beautiful June morning sees the southbound Northlander with ONR 2001 pulling away from a stop at the Swastika ‘station’ in this wide-angle view that shows most of the communities downtown area. Second unit is auxiliary power unit #205. I’m standing on a makeshift platform of boards against a pine tree in order to get some elevation. It will be nice to see the rebirth of the ONR Northlander. I just wish it would be a daylight run.

I wonder if that was the case. He didn’t have to take off like he was competing in the Derby.
As far as signals go; interesting comment; next time up there will check on changes. I just know the office slash station has been demolished.

Pulling back the throttle at bit extra for the photographer. Quite an interesting array of signals at this location. The signals are still looking good, although I suspect they may have been deactivated at this time.
